An officer of his level would not announce/leak info on his resignation knowing well its not approved. My thought is he got wind of the reshuffles and since his was not a transfer/promotion he leaked the resignation story to save face
Demotion maybe, time will tell. The resignation story was just to save face, its not a coincidence that it happened during a reshuffle in the administrative sector
We have tried strengthening institutions but it has not worked, they are still being controlled. The day we shall stop depending on the president to fight corruption is when we shall be safe.
